Boutique - Xiaoling Outfit Request

Throughout the game, the main NPC's will visit your boutique to request new outfits. Some characters request new outfits for an event or as their normal outfit they wear in game. Each character has their own personal style and a list of each characters style can be found here.

Xiaoling is a local artist who draws protraits of people around Beaumonde City. She idolises Callie and her story line in the main part of the game is to copy her style. Xiaoling will visit your boutique requesting a new outfit to wear as her normal outfit.
 

Xiaoling is the most difficult character to pick an outfit for. She seems to like a number of styles and can be hard to please. Xiaoling will accept outfits that match the following requirements:
  • Girly themed items - mainly Marzipan Sky brand.
  • A yukuta from Kanokoi that is girly themed.
  • Bold themed items.
  • Flower patterned girly items.

Xiaoling will not accept eastern themed items and will reject the outfit if you give one to her. The only item from the eastern brand Kanokoi that she will accept is girly themed yukatas and the best item for that is the Strawberry Lace Yukata. She will always accept this item, no matter if she already owns the item in a different colour.
 

Now to pick an outfit! Select any image or item fitting the requirements mentioned above and design an outfit based around this style. Remember to choose clothing items appropriate for the season, i.e. you cannot wear just a tank top in winter as the character will remark how they will get cold. Each character will have a budget you will need to stay within and you can go slightly over the budget by about $80. Once you are happy with the outfit, select Ok.


You can select either 'Try It On' or 'Take A Look' when showing the character the outfit you have chosen. Select the 'Try It On' option if you are confident they will like the outfit or if you select 'Take A Look', you will get 3 tries to try to impress the character with an outfit. 


If you chose 'Try It On' and the character is highly impressed with the outfit, the game will play a short animation showing the character in their new outfit. The background of the animation changes depending on the style the character is wearing.


Looks like Xiaoling is impressed with her new outfit. She will tell you what aspects she likes about it and usually will comment on how she loves the theme or pattern. During this scene, characters will give you hints on the styles and colours that they look for in an outfit. The picture below shows Xiaoling is a fan of eastern styles (which is wrong because she never accepts eastern items) and the style suits her. If you give her a girly or bold outfit, she will comment on how girly or bold the outfit is.


After this, Xiaoling will pay you for the outfit and the amount is added to your money in-game. Xiaoling will comment on how excited she is now and would like to go out and celebrate. She will invite you to visit her at Bun-Bun Funland which can be accessed via the train station. You do not need to meet her immediately and can visit whenever you like. When visiting Bun-Bun Funland with Xiaoling, she will ask to take a photo with you and give you a miniature item as a gift.

    1. I've never tried to say it out loud, but I always thought of it as a two syllable word 'Xiao-ling'

    2. I think it's pronounced shee-ao-ling

    3. That would make sense and sounds quite similar :)

    4. It's actually two syllables in Chinese - a bit like 'shao' for xiao, with the ao like the ou in ouch, and then just ling for the second syllable!
